Despite losing Saha early, SRH ended up scoring 52 runs in the powerplay thanks to the powerful hitting of Martin Guptill. However, things took a drastic change for the visitors in the 8th over bowled by Sundar as he dismissed Guptill with a soft dismissal and the in-form batsman Manish Pandey owing to a brilliant catch by Hetmyer in the same over.
